Congratulations to Sophie Bell-Booth (7NSA) who has been accepted by ‘Toitoi’ to be an illustrator for their stories in the 33rd edition. This is a huge achievement for Sophie as this publication has so many application submissions for illustrator opportunities and this really acknowledges Sophie’s strength as an artist. Above are some examples of her work.

Congratulations to Raven Cassidy Advincula (7NSA) who was recently selected to represent New Zealand at the 26th Annual World Championships of Performing Arts in July 2023. Raven nailed the elimination and got a semifinalist medal. Only 2 Junior vocals from the NZ team got into the semifinals. Only 14 countries out of 34 countries went to the semifinals for the Junior category.  Congratulations Raven, an outstanding achievement.
